March 20, 2018 - Brick red. Lots of secondary flavors, tobacco, anise, soft mature tannins, and red currants.

December 23, 2017 - Enjoyed with spaghettini, this poured light to medium body, lots of florals and feminine notes in the nose - some interesting secondaries I can't quite classify - almost antiseptic/medicineal in a good way. Lively and fresh acidity, with some tannin still. Not much sweet fruit, but enough to keep it somewhat in balance. Will put under vacuvin for a day and see what happens and update more. Looking back at the Parker note from 2001, I have no idea what wine he was writing about, because this seems so far off from that note....I suppose that type of evolution is possible, but I can't say because I didn't try this in its youth.

April 3, 2017 - Smells of chestnuts, dried fig, grilled meats and dark chocolate. The palate is full, round and glossy. There's plenty of mocha/chocolate notes and a jube-like quality to the fruit. It gets more savoury with air and tannins are relatively plump yet the wine has freshness.
